Home Births

Being at home, relaxed in your own environment is the best possible place for normal healthy mums. We know that labour progresses quicker and easier when you can relax in a familiar environment, cared for by your midwife who you know and trust.

You can relax knowing that you will never be left alone and will have a professional friend with you throughout the birth of your baby. Depending on your location, your private midwife may be able to provide all of your care in hospital. In other areas, she will be with you to support you alongside NHS staff.

Help us donate birth kits to Africa

Following on from charitable work that our midwives have provided in Africa, and in line with our Principals of providing ongoing support of healthcare initiatives that help mothers, babies and midwives, we are aiming to supply 1,000 birth kits to front line midwives in Africa. In order to raise awareness and funds for this cause, our CEO has volunteered to climb Africa's highest peak - Kilimanjaro - at 5,895m in October. With the flat plains of Cheshire as his home and only three months to prepare, we want to give him as much support as possible in this fantastic challenge, so please give generously!

In order to contribute to the pledge target of £5,000 to pay for 1,000 birth kits, Private Midwives will be paying for the cost of one birth kit for every package of care booked during the rest of 2017.
